14. Relax...He won Iowa....and brought in a record turnout to boot! Lily White Iowa |

Some prejudices just don't face reality. Reality is that obama not only won in a non-blue lily white state, he won overwhelmingly and brought out such a big turnout that the word record in and understatement!
I think some of this obmama can't win in the general because he is black is just reaching for something to knock obama on because they favor another candidate. This may be understandable, but we really should examine ourselves before we go so far as to basically argue on the basis of race (or sex) as an underlying reason not to nominate someone. It is disgusting and I am going to call it what it is....racist and sexist. It is sorta like trying to say you have nothing against blacks, but your daughter better not date one because it would have repercussions.... We can do better than that.
